Aaah, spring.
Something we often take for granted. I must say, it is a
pleasure to finally see it in Colorado again. This is the first
year since 1999 that I have not been on Everest or Cho Oyu for
the spring season…And, it feels quite good!
Yes, I miss my
good friends in Nepal and Tibet, and there is a bit of nostalgia
for the mountain, the struggle of climbing, and the crisp, clear
air of the high Himalaya. But, to be honest, it is nice to not
don my down suit, eat ramen noodles, and travel from winter in
Colorado to…winter in Asia!
But, Everest will
undoubtedly beckon again. Its siren song is often ignored, but
seldom resisted. I am sure I will return, but not before
savoring the beauty of Spring in the Rocky Mountains!
